I have a 95 240sx se, painted flat black with minor body damage and a cracked front windshield. It has a 175,000 on the body, motor, tranny. Probably could use a new tranny and or motor. What do you guys think I should sell it for?

BTW

this is in the bay area, california, and it in a running condtion...

Seeing as how the motor and tranny aren't good, the body is damaged, and you seem to like curb humping, I'd say it's worth more money to part it out.

All that goodness, while the drifting scene is still hot. I say 4.4k or less, asit does need bodywork, and new trans and engine.

i bought my '95 2 years ago for $4300/ 90k/ damaged interior/ throwing codes

flat black, body dmg, barely running, cracked windshield

$2k tops. maybe you can get $2.5k - $3k from a bandwagon humper.

see thats what i thought, the body damage is minimal, i was expecting around 2k at most, It does have the 300zx brakes, The tranny is just a little rough on the shifts, and with a 175k on the clock, i would expect the motor to be rebuilt.

hmmm z brakes...are they still working? I would sell the z brakes and slap on oem brakes. You'll can probably get a couple more hundred out of it. speaking of which... i got a pair of rear oem brake calipers

get a cheapo 300 dollar paint job and it might attract more people to buy it.

Drift Style S14 · 06-08-2005, 01:50 AM

I thought about doing the paint job not sure yet.... I might do the body work and primer the car before i sell it, it all depends.

yeah they work, nope they stay with the car, I thought about selling them but its not worth the time swaping them out. Oh I still need to put the steel braided lines on there, prob just give them to who ever buys the car.

yes, fixing it up will bring up its "wow" factor, meaning you can ask for more money.
